Inspired by the practice of meditation and the concept of Zen, the Nike Roshe One epitomises simplicity. It has no embellishments, just basic shoe necessities brought to life with every detail. Almost every part of the shoe reflects an aspect of a tranquil Zen garden: a modified Waffle outsole made to look like stepping stones, an insole that mirrors a raked rock garden, and slightly different midsole side lengths— a juxtaposition of seriousness and playfulness.
